What inspires you and how do you envision the design for your business?

I am very open to design - really am flexible with colors, etc. I am looking for a homepage concept, for a social media site that will provide articles and information on WordPress and blogging in general.

As part of the backend of this project, I am planning on building this as a community site, with social media capabilities.

So the appearance needs to be appealing to the savvy, web 2.0 type crowd, and give off the appearance of social media site with featured articles, etc on the homepage.

Because of the amount I am offering up for the prize, I reserved the right to close the contest without declaring any winners, if I don't find a design that is right for my project.

Wants

- Space for advertising (no overkill though)
- Colors that are pleasing to the eye
- Tagline: Socially connecting the WordPress community
